Patent CA-2368901-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PNIOK THOMAS
IPC: G01R15/20
Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a current meter which is based on the principle of surface field measurement. Hall sensors (1) are used which are arranged in such a way, that they are excited by a magnetic field which is proportional to the current. Two Hall sensors are arranged in such a way, that they detect t he field to be measured quantitatively in a uniform manner, but with opposing polarity signs. By subtracting the output signals from the Hall sensors, the  measured value of the current is amplified, whilst external parasitic induction is eliminated.

Filed: 2002-02-01
Abstract: When varying the Raman gain or the gain tilt of an optical amplifier, there is no need to individually adjust the output level of every pump light source or perform overall adjustment, making it possible to obtain a targeted gain with little adjustment. For this purpose, in a pump light source for Raman amplification for outputting a plurality of pump lightwaves for effecting Raman amplification on signal lightwaves input to a light transmission path in the light transmission paths the pump light source for Raman amplification is divided into a shorter wavelength light source and a longer wavelength light source which differ in oscillation wavelength; a plurality of lightwaves emitted from the shorter wavelength light source and a lightwave emitted from the longer wavelength light source are coupled and output; and the plurality of lightwaves output from the shorter wavelength light source or the lightwave output from the longer wavelength light source is collectively controlled to adjust the intensity of the output light.

Title: Methods and apparatus for measuring the volume of fluid in the peritoneal cavity
Inventor: LEVIN NATHAN W
IPC: A61M1/28
Filed: 2000-09-29
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining peritoneal cavity fluid volume include four groups of two electrodes applied to a subject's skin. Measuring electrodes (MLL, MRL) are applied to the subject loins, measuring electrodes (MLB, MRB) are applied to the subject's buttocks, and upper and lower current-providing electrodes (IRU, ILU, IRL, ILL) are applied to the subject's left and right sides distal from the measuring electrodes (MLL, MRL, MLB, MRB). The resistance between left measuring electrode (MLL, MLB) is measured and the resistance between right measuring electrodes (MRL, MRB) is measured while current is applied between the upper and lower current-providing electrodes. By averaging resistance values, in combination with a calibration pro-cedure, measurements of peritoneal cavity fluid volume are obtained. The measurement techniques can be used in continuous flow peritoneal dialysis to control or adjust dialysis parameters based on peritoneal cavity fluid.

Inventor: HAMILTON ANDREW JOHN
IPC: A01H1/00
Filed: 2000-11-22
Abstract: Disclosed are a variety of methods for achieving enhanced expression from a target nucleotide sequence in a plant e.g. comprising the step of transiently introducing into a tissue of a plant (e.g. a leaf) a first nucleic acid comprising the target nucleotide sequence and a second nucleic acid encoding a Post Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) suppressor protein (preferably of viral or plant origin), wherein the first and second nucleic acids are comprised within a single binary vector, construct, or the first and second nucleic acid sequences are comprised within a first binary vector and a second binary vector construct respectively. The plant tissue may then be harvested for the protein. Such methods can give much higher levels of gene expression than are obtainable using stable transgenes, or certain replicating vectors.  Also disclosed are specific PTGS suppressor proteins: potato virus X (pvx), p25 protein; african cassava mosaic virus (acmv) AC2 protein; rice yellow mottle virus (rymv) P1 protein; tomato bushy stunt virus (tbsv) 19K protein;  plus variants of these. These suppressors may be used in any PTRS context, including the enhancement of transient expression systems.

Filed: 2000-11-28
Abstract: A blood vessel clip applicator (50) preferably includes two twist pins (16, 18) at one end, between which a blood vessel (22) is placed before occlusion. A magazine (28) in the blood vessel clip applicator (50) preferably holds a plurality of blood vessel clips (2) and can be rotated independently from a grip assembly, whereby the twist pins (16, 18) can be rotated to compress a blood vessel (22) held between them. A blood vessel clip (2) is preferably placed on the blood vessel (22) after it has been flattened. A blood vessel clip (2) preferably comprises spring quality material, and preferably has a head (1) connected to a first leg (4) and a second leg (6). The magazine (28) preferably has a constricted region (32) adjacent to an exit aperture. As the head (1) enters the constricted region (32), the compressive force exerted on the head (1) by the constricted region (32) opens the blood vessel clip (2) to an open position.  In an alternate embodiment, a variety of blood vessel clips (320, 330, 340, 350, 360, 370) having different shapes, cross-sections and grooves are suitable for use with the blood vessel clip applicator. The alternate blood vessel clip preferably have two legs in a "V" configuration and a head connecting the two legs. The constricted region compresses the head of the blood vessel clip as it passes through the constricted region, thereby closing the clip onto the blood vessel. These alternate embodiments may comprise substantially annealed metal.
